Entrepreneurship in the Water Industry has been experiencing attention deficit for a

long time, resulting in low pipeline of investable deals and relatively low

investments from private investors, compared to other industries

International Water Centre, Waterpreneurs and interested partners can play

significant role in supporting development of water innovations and

entrepreneurship, leveraged with Australian expertise.
